CNN PRESENTS: ATLANTA CHILD MURDERS – Airs Saturday 8:00PM – 10:00PM and 11:00PM (Sunday 2:00AM and 4:00AM)Over 30 years after the murders of more than 25 Black children, teens and young adults, CNN anchor and special correspondent Soledad O’Brien investigates the nearly two-year siege of fear that gripped the city of Atlanta. Although Wayne Williams continues to profess his innocence from behind bars, with his arrest and conviction, he was described as both a “monster” – and the nation’s first Black serial killer. In his first television interview in 10 years, O’Brien’s exclusive access to Williams and new evidence offers viewers a new look at the persistent doubts, and invites viewers to decide for themselves who was responsible for all those lost young lives.
